The historic Bell-Pigott House, built in the mid- to late 18th century near the banks of the North River Straits, offers residents light-filled spaces and extraordinary water views through its many windows. The nearly three-quarter-acre lot on Dicks Creek features lovely mature trees, coastal breezes from the Core Sound, and close proximity to the water, where adock could be constructed to allow boat access to the property.

OHD Notes
Preservation NC description, " Built in the mid- to late-18th century near the North River Straits, the Bell-Pigott House offers light-filled spaces and extraordinary water views through its many windows. The nearly three-quarter acre lot on Dick's Creek features mature trees, coastal breezes, and close proximity to the water, where a dock could be constructed. Retains several early features, including ballast stone foundation, "Straits brick" chimney, original plaster walls, and some original woodwork. Several additions were made over time, including enclosure of front and rear porches in the 1950s. Large attic could be remodeled for additional space. Requires full rehabilitation."
